Privilege pet nickname of “Little Potato” for the Prime Minister. We will denounce absurdity because that endorsement is an absurdity. The trifecta of the left in this country is that they are obsessed with American politics and they are trying to bring that sort of Americanization of our

Financial Protection for Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Farmers Act that farmers can automate, but this is not one that can be automated. This is still done by farmers putting their hands in the dirt and digging those little nuggets out of the ground by hand.

Proceedings of the House and Committees nickname of “little potato” by the PRC, came home empty handed. Therefore, he even failed to achieve his own objective.

Business of Supply as a “little potato”, and how it has blocked imports from Canada without fearing any repercussions, even though we import twice as much from them.

Business of Supply — to his private cash-for-access fundraisers with Chinese billionaires, [the Prime Minister] had been Beijing's hands-down favourite among G7 leaders.

International Trade committee looking for increased yield; they're looking for a different product. We have the Little Potato Company growing small potatoes. That means they do it in a shorter time frame and they take off a lower yield. It's in the farmers' nature to want the most per acre, but the bottom line
